Our hiring process is very selective at Day Translations, Inc. All translators and interpreters must pass a specially tailored test to become an employee – refresher tests are then subsequently conducted every 3 months for quality control. Plus, all of our translators have certifications in multiple languages from the American Translator Association (ATA). Our translators possess expertise in a wide range of areas such as business, medicine and healthcare, education, and advertising. Collectively, our team of professional translators possess years of international translation and localization experience to perfectly fit your business needs.

In the US, a certified translation is one that has been completed by a translator who is a member of the American Translators Association (ATA), whereas a notarized translation bears a notary’s seal. Notarization is an additional service that involves adding the signature of a notary, who is an official witness, to the document. A notary’s signature can be added as a footer or on a separate statement of accuracy, and we may be able to work out the best option after receiving the details of your project.

A sworn translator can execute sworn translations because he/she has been certified by the government of his/her residence. In a number of countries, such a legal distinction exists, thereby allowing translators to stamp their translations as accurate and faithful to the original document. In the US, where the distinction does not exist, Day Translations combines its agency certification with a notary’s signature to achieve an equivalent standard.
